Jiawu Lake
甲勿海
A highland lake near Wujiao in eastern Jiuzhaigou County, with clear blue-green water and autumn forests around it; nicknamed “Little Jiuzhaigou.”
Jiawu Lake lies near Wujiao in eastern Jiuzhaigou County, about 50 km from the county seat. Its water is clear and blue-green, the lakeshore forests are dense, and in autumn the red leaves and lake water complement each other. Its scenery rivals the lakes inside Jiuzhaigou, but it draws far fewer visitors. Nearby are the Wujiao Giant Panda Nature Reserve and Baima Tibetan villages. From the Jiuzhaigou County seat (Yongle Town), it is about an hour's drive. Public transport is limited, so hiring a car is recommended; the lake can be combined with Baima Tibetan culture in a day trip.
